"I've passed the sixteenth level. Now there's only the last level left!" Zhou Tong muttered to himself for a while, then sat down cross-legged and quietly started to refine the reward for this level — Golden Soul Beads.
There were more than a thousand Golden Soul Beads on this level. Even if he refined one in a minute, it would take him more than half a day. Moreover, Zhou Tong also needed to comprehend the Rules of Destruction.
He finally stayed on the sixteenth level for half a month before opening his eyes again.
"More than a thousand Golden Soul Beads. The souls of my five bodies have all reached an unprecedented peak. It's time to enter the seventeenth level … If I don't enter now, there won't be enough time. The Graveyard of the Gods will end in three days!" Zhou Tong took a deep breath and stepped onto the stairs to the seventeenth level.
Graveyard of the Gods, seventeenth level.
This was a pitch-black world. There were no stars, no moon, and no sun. There were also many strange plants growing on the surface.
It was as if light couldn't exist in this world.
The moment Zhou Tong stepped into this place, a shadow in the darkness turned around and looked in Zhou Tong's direction. "Hm? Someone has finally come to this level? I've been trapped here for thousands of years. I can finally be released. Perhaps this time, I can return to the Dark Divine Realm. "
"This is the seventeenth level? It's so dark! " Zhou Tong subconsciously lit a flame to illuminate the place, but the light was all swallowed by the many strange plants on the ground.
"Oh, plants that swallow light? But what's the use of that? It can't swallow consciousness! "Zhou Tong was somewhat speechless. He spread out his enormous consciousness.
After going through the first sixteen levels, he had refined 2,000 Golden Soul Beads. With the strength of his consciousness, even a High-level God with a slightly weaker soul couldn't compare to him.
However, after spreading out such a powerful consciousness, he didn't discover the guardian of this level.
"There's no guardian? Or is this guardian a High-level God who's good at concealment and sneak attacks? "Zhou Tong was stunned. He didn't expect that even his own consciousness couldn't discover the guardian.
"However, it doesn't matter if you don't come out. I'll force you out!" Zhou Tong had already found the stairs leading to the eighteenth floor. He directly turned into a stream of light and flew there.
"What a powerful divine sense. Is he really a Lower God?" The shadowy figure stared at Zhou Tong in some surprise. "His soul was hidden to such an extent that even I, Ichabod, wasn't able to detect any hint of Highgod aura. So that means that the divine sense from before was deliberately discovered by me? Looks like he's really a terrifying expert with such a powerful soul. "
Ichabod was an expert who cultivated in the Laws of Darkness and had fused four profound mysteries of the Laws. Powerhouses of the Laws of Darkness were most proficient in the aspect of souls.
"Not good, he's going straight to the eighteenth floor. If I let him go up, I'll be finished! Damn it, I don't have a chance to sneak up on him, so I can only fight him head-on. " Ichabod no longer cared about hiding himself. He directly transformed into a black ray of light, shooting explosively towards Zhou Tong.
Ichabod had originally wanted to rely on his extraordinary concealment abilities to sneak up on Zhou Tong, then suddenly attack. But Zhou Tong didn't give him any time to sneak in.
If you don't show yourself, then I'll pretend you don't exist and go straight to the next floor!!
As for Ichabod, as the guardian of this floor, he was instantly forced to come out and fight head-on.
"He's coming!" Zhou Tong made his move, immediately sensing that Highgod.
Previously, he had concealed himself, and so Zhou Tong naturally hadn't been able to sense him. But now that he had come out, there was naturally no way for him to hide from Zhou Tong.
"Rumble …"
A pitch-black divine sword instantly pierced towards Zhou Tong's head. The space around that pitch-black divine sword completely distorted, as if it was an underwater whirlpool. That terrifying devouring force made Zhou Tong's figure a bit unstable, to the extent where he felt as if his body was flying towards that black divine sword.
Meanwhile, in this whirlpool-like distorted space, there were streaks of blue-black tentacle-like black smoke lingering about. It was definitely extremely dangerous.
"What a powerful attack! I'm going to use all of my trump cards. "Zhou Tong immediately sensed the power of this sword. In that instant, an enormous Heavenly Horned Ant void image appeared behind him. Then, the Heavenly Horned Ant merged into Zhou Tong's body.
In that instant, Zhou Tong's entire body erupted with golden light, his eyes instantly becoming a blood red color. A wave of crazy aura rushed out. Regardless of whether it was spiritual force, speed, or power, they all instantly erupted.
Zhou Tong used the merged divine force and the Heavenly Horned Ant's innate divine abilities, and then he fiercely brandished his fist with the Laws of Earth …
"Rumble!"
The fist and the sword collided, and an enormous sound rang out, causing the entire space to tremble and crack. Spatial ripples instantly spread out in every direction.
After this strike, Ichabod's face changed dramatically, and he was knocked flying backwards. His sword-wielding hand was trembling, and the web between his thumb and forefinger was split open. Even the Highgod artifact he had nurtured for countless years was still trembling.
"What terrifying power. Is this his innate divine ability? All-around strengthening? " Ichabod's face was ugly to behold. "And … his divine power aura … how can it simultaneously contain the aura of earth divine power, fire divine power, water divine power, and destruction divine power?"
"You … can it be that you are a Soul Mutate expert? An unprecedented mutation of four elements? You really are a Demigod!! "Ichabod, stunned, blurted out these words.
"Oh? You actually sensed it! The divine power of a Demigod really is too weak, and its aura is seriously leaking out! "Zhou Tong looked at his own fist as well. A bloody scar had appeared on his fist as well.
After all, he was still just a Demigod. A Seven Star Fiend level attack was already capable of breaking through his defense.
"By the time I reach the God level in all four elements, my body will be a level stronger than when I fused with divine power. Perhaps by then, even an Asura will find it hard to break through my defense. Only after all four elements reach the Highgod level will my body truly reach the Sovereign artifact level." Zhou Tong said to himself.
The Heavenly Horned Ant's body was very powerful, but it had to simultaneously increase the power of each element in order to further strengthen its body. Even if it was just missing a single element, it would still be far from enough.
Zhou Tong's current body was only slightly stronger than Linley's in the original work, but if he simultaneously trained all four elements to the God level, then his body would be slightly stronger than the Azure Dragons' Captain Gislason. If he reached the Highgod level, then his body would be as strong as Beirut's.
Right now, his defense had been broken through by a Seven Star Fiend level attack purely because his current level was too low.
"However, my innate divine ability's duration is limited. I don't have time to waste on him. I have to go all out and try to end this battle as soon as possible!" Zhou Tong's eyes turned cold. Taking a single step, his entire body seemed to instantly charge towards his opponent at high speed.
His fused divine power, his terrifying body, the power of the fusion of the Profound Mysteries of Explosion and the Edicts of Destruction, combined with the strengthening of the Heavenly Horned Ant's innate divine ability, Berserk Transformation … Zhou Tong's instantaneous explosive speed wasn't much weaker than that of an ordinary Seven Star Fiend's.
"Damn. The fusion of the profound mysteries of fire and the Edicts of Destruction actually allowed a mere Demigod to explode with such speed!" Ichabod's face changed dramatically. This sort of explosive speed was already very close to his peak speed.
In other words, even if he wanted to stall for time, he had to go all out!
"I've been imprisoned here for thousands of years. It's been a long time since I've gone all out. As long as I can stall until your innate divine ability ends, I'll win!" Ichabod was about to go all out as well. His entire body was covered with that pitch-black fog, and his entire body was emanating an aura of utter wickedness.
